The conference adjourned on January 23. 4-- II The bureau of home economics of the United States department of agriculture suggests that even when the home is never rented, it is an excellent plan to keep an inventory of the fur- nishings, revising it at regular interval. All articles purchased and gifts are entered, and those disposed of are crossed off. A glance at this inventory helps the family to plan ahead for the necessary replacements in making out a budget for the coming what year. It is necessary to know is actually on hand; what condition each article is in and therefore what its present value is; which must soon be replaced or repaired; how much to allow for that purpose; whether or not previous purchases have given . good service. How often must such things as china and linen be replaced? The inventory gives the answer. One copy of tiie inventory should be kept in a safe place outside the house, prefer- ably in a vault. safety-depos- it Better Specifications Are Needed for Wide Cotton Sheetings .

Recently tills association asked the help of the American Standards association in interesting manufacturers and retailers in such a plan. .As a result, committees representing all the interests involved have been appointed under the procedure of that organization and have been considering the practicabilon ity of grouping the sheetings now specificaand market up the setting tions for weight, sizing, thread count, and tensile strength for each group. Fortunately a very complete anal marysis of 109 sheetings now on the State ket had been published by Iowa college and could be used, as a basis However, for these specifications. these data had never been classified or arranged in a form suitable for use Margaret in setting up standards. textile chemist Furry, now assistant bureau of home on the staff of the. economics, United States department of agriculture, made the original tests at Iowa and was therefore recently asked to make the necessary analysis of the results. One basis used was the weight in ounces per square yard medium-weigh- t, and t, of heavy-weigsheetings. It was noticed that in the light and medium weight sheetings as the sizing materials increase there is an increase in the percentage loss in tensile strength of the fabrics after laundergroup this ing. In the heavy-weigIn considering so not loss is striking. the average values, the increase in tensile strength and thread count and decrease in sizing in order of the groups from light weight to heavy are very interesting.

The jist of their remarks was that Utah pays niggardly salaries to its offices of public officials holding seems to unand tacitly great trust, derstand that these small salaries will no doubt be boosted by thefts and salchicanery of various sorts. Thethree is treasurer state ary of the thousand dollars per year. The salary of Governor Dern is five hundred per month. When it is figured that living conditions are different in Salt Lake than in the rural towns, and that expenses are necessarily higher, together with the fact that there is a certain social position to be maintained which entails considerable financing, it is to be wondered that man any but a rich, or will seek public office in Utah. When Utah provides its officials with decent salaries which will not leave them harrassed by financial difficulties, and also provides frequen and irregular checks and audits only then will Utah's skirts be entirely clean. When that millenium is reached, so will temptations to easy grafting be removed and immediate am proper justice can be dealt out to those who violate a public trust. We thoroughly believe in this argument so advanced, admitting at the same time that it is a viewpoint which few of the public, including ourselves, have taken.

These smaller particles of soil are described by the soil scientists as "soil Some soils are composed colloids." largely of colloids; others are sandy and gravelly and have a relatively large proportion of particles larger than colloids. Ceramic clay used by This potters is largely colloidal. in p apply these number of The particles the soil is almost unbelievably great, their size incomprehensibly small,H says H. G. Byers, of the bureau of chemistry and soils of the department of agriculture in a popular discussion published recently. For example, in a soil which consists of 30 per cent of particles which average of a micron in diameter, which is a fair mean for soils, there are about 240,000,000,000,000 particles per cubic centimeter of soil which present a total surface of 79,000 square centimeters. Stated otherwise, a childs thimble full of such soil contains particles with a surface area of about 72 square feet. So it is apparent that the soil surface exposed to the eye is insignificant compared to that open to the exploring roots of plants." one-ten- th - Scout Reunion to Be Held Saturday Boy Scouts who won awards of merit at Camp Kiesel last summer, will hold their annual reunion Saturday evening at Weber gymnasium.
